Chapter 1288 Move Together
“Ahh!” David roared in fury as a bright light emitted from all parts of his body. Boom!
The ground shook violently as the surrounding buildings were instantly turned into dust.
Some members of the Norton family who had not reached David were instantly engulfed by the shock wave. Their bodies were immediately reduced to ashes.
Jared gritted his teeth as a huge wave of limitless energy passed over him.
He was hurled out of the area due to the impact.
The scales of the Golem Body started to fall off his body, and in the end, it was totally shattered to pieces.
Jared’s body suffered an enormous amount of pressure, causing him to pass out.
It took a long while before Jared slowly opened his eyes, realizing his body was filled with injuries.
Even so, he was not in a critical state. However, everything within a hundred-meter radius from where David had been standing had been turned to ashes.
“The self-destruct of a Martial Arts Marquis is indeed powerful,” Jared muttered as he observed his scarred body.
Meanwhile, at the Warriors Alliance in Jadeborough, Zion was having a meeting with members of other prominent families. There was a large screen in front of them, and on it was playing the scene of Jared fighting against David.
“Did you all see that? In just a few days, Jared has already achieved the rank of a Martial Arts Marquis. With that, he has been utterly transformed. If we don’t destroy him soon, he will become a threat to us,” Zion said with a grim expression.
“I’ve never imagined that Jared was able to improve so quickly. Did he dabble in the Demonic Cultivation?” Ryker was in disbelief. Before this, they had always looked down upon Jared. It had only been a few months, yet the latter had already dared to fight against David, a Martial Arts Marquis.
“I, too, suspect that Jared knows Demonic Cultivation,” another member added.
“That’s impossible.” Zion shook his head. “I’m sure Jared has other secrets hidden up his sleeve.”
He knew very well that Jared did not know anything about Demonic Cultivation. Otherwise, Zion would have already realized it.
“I thought that David had actually killed Jared. Seems like he was just bragging,” another member stated contemptuously.
“Since Jared is not dead, then we shall make a move. It was fortunate that the assassins I’ve hired had not left yet.”
Zion’s gaze darkened. “Jared has Mr. Sanders backing him up. We have to be flawless in our operation. If Mr. Sanders finds out, we will all be in the same boat. Therefore, we must move together.”
“Don’t worry, President Zeigler. Since we have all agreed to stand on the same side, we will definitely carry out the operation together,” another person piped up.
“Good. I can promise you that soon enough, the entire martial arts world in Jadeborough will be under the Warriors Alliance’s control.” A malicious smile appeared on Zion’s face.
Rumble…
It was right then that the ground under them started shaking as if there was an earthquake.
“What’s going on?” Zion asked with a frown.
The others quickly looked outside to see what was going on.
Suddenly, an elder from the Warriors Alliance rushed in. “President Ziegler, David has self-destructed.”
“Self-destructed?”
Everyone was instantly dumbfounded.
All of them knew very well how powerful the self-destruction of a Martial Arts Marquis could be.
“What are the casualties?” Zion asked.
If a Martial Arts Marquis self-destructed, the power and energy released were insurmountable. Everyone who was spectating would definitely get injured.
Moreover, if many people in Jadeborough’s martial arts world suddenly died, Zion, as the president of the Warriors Alliance, also had hold accountable for it.
“I’m not sure, but the bystanders had long left the venue. I’m guessing that David and Jared had perished in the fight. The Norton family is also probably already dead,” the elder replied.
“Go and check the situation out!” Zion roared.
With that, the elder quickly scurried off to do just that.
With a grim expression on his face, Zion then sat back down in his seat.
